Howie,  Time goes by so quickly, but it still feels  like you are part of our lives.  So many memories of good times together, you really became a part of our family and you are missed.

Always remembering what a wonderful man Howard was! May his precious memories bring joy to his loved ones! ❤️🙏🏽

Uncle Howie, as we all knew him, was the best hugger! Always gregarious and willing to talk if I needed it & especially loving towards our mom Irma, his sister. He was everything to her and my sisters & I are so grateful for the love & support he showed our mom after we lost our dad. Her 9 years in Florida were so special because of him & we'd like to thank Estelle for making him so happy for the last 17 years. We'll miss you, Uncle H. Sending much love to his children & their families.

Uncle Howie  is who he was to me. My mom’s older brother, bigger than life. Uncle Howie was /is so loved. He always called me Big Al and always had a story to share. I remember visiting him after Auntie Lona died and we talked late into the night about everything. I never had him to myself before and I cherished that visit. He was smart as a whip, lightening fast sense of humor and always had some sarcastic quip. He loved my mom fiercely and was her protector- always. I love you Uncle H, rest in peace, you were loved. 

Thank you all for your kind words about my dad. It is so heartwarming to see how many lives were touched by dad. 



The saying they broke the mold was for you Howard.  Always true, a gentleman, caring and funny.  You will be missed by so many.   ❤️ 

Howard was a true gentlemen; soft spoken, humble and gracious.  His many years of work on behalf of the Wellington senior community will not be forgotten.  He loved his family, his friends and his community and he and Estelle were great fun to be around.  Our prayers go out to Estelle and family.  May his memory be a blessing to you. 


Howard will be truly missed!  He was larger than life and a driving force in the Village of Wellington.  I will miss his guidance, strength and advocacy on behalf of our seniors.  God Speed!! I send my deepest condolences to Estelle and the Trager family.

Until we meet again....❤️

My wife and I loved Howard, we called him Howie, and will miss him dearly. A more decent man is hardly found anywhere, he was funny, kind, he always enjoyed the Peruvian food we made in our family meetings and, as we Peruvians say, he was a beloved "caballero" which means a real gentleman or even more accurate a mensch. Rest in peace Howie, you will be always in our minds.

Howard was a wonderful man.  He knew,exactly how to make my grandmother happy.  They were not only companions,  but best friends.  Howard became a part of our family as soon as we met him.  He was the only great grandfather my 4 children had. They felt his love everytime they visited us, or called and sang.  Howard would even brush my daughters hair when he was here, it was their thing to always talk about. He made sure my grandmother made it to Maryland for her great grandchildren graduations and always made us feel loved. He will be greatly missed. We are grateful for the short almost 20 years that we got to know him.  Love always. 

Howard- you will always be an everlasting part of our family. You were such a wonderful companion and love to Grandma. I will always remember the great wit you had, the stories you told, and the fun times you spent enjoying life side by side with Grandma. The two of you were the life of a party, and always knew how to bring the fun! I know she will miss you dearly. We will all miss you. Sending you big hugs. Keep looking after us all.  ❤️❤️❤️

Howard was a great man, a great leader and a friend to the Village of Wellington.  He and Estelle provided so much joy to me personally every time we interacted. I pray that the family will have peace knowing that he was loved and appreciated by this community.

My sincere condolences to family. May God bless you all with His peace which surpasses all understanding. You may miss Howard on earth but know that he is resting in his eternal home with our Lord. Hold on to your memories and remember God will never leave us or forsake us. 

Dear Estelle and Trager family,
We are so very sad to hear about Howard’s passing. We loved him very much. My kids really loved him. Howard was a very special man, he was always very patient and caring to Shaun, he was very proud of Nicole when she finished college and he was always very happy to see Savannah in all the get togethers- he would always tell me that she was a really spunky, beautiful girl! He always had a nice, sweet attitude and he was just a great person to talk to and hang out with. I really hope that you find comfort in knowing that he was loved and know that his memory will live on with our family always.  Our deep condolences Estellita and much love from Jose, Bibi, Shaun, Nicole and Savannah 

Howard was such a loving man! He always had a kind word to say, and we really enjoyed our conversations! He will always be in our hearts! We will miss him so much, especially his big hugs! He was like a big teddy bear! We love you Howie! Until we see you again! ❤️🙏🏼

We will miss Howie, he was a part of our lives for the past eighteen years or so.  He was a good man and his memory will live in our hearts always.

Have so many great memories with Howie. He was part of all our family festivities and celebrations.  We will miss him terribly. Love always , Steve Rubin
